Intro
When the spell is broken
When the spell is broken
How you ever gonna keep enough
You cant cry if you dont know how.
When the spell is broken
When the spell is broken
All the joy is gone from her face
Welcome back to the human race
How long can the flame of love remain
When you curse and you fight
And never see the light
Or hear a word spoken
When the spell is broken
When the spell is broken
(2nd verse)
When the spell is broken
All your magic and your ways and schemes
All your lies come and tear at your dreams
When the Spell is broken
When the Spell is broken
Are you handing her that same old line
It's just straws in the wind this time
When Love has died, there's none left starry eyed
No kiss and no tears
No farewell souveniers, not even a token
When the Spell is broken
(3rd verse)
(solo)
Don't swear your heart
From the very start
Love letters you wrote
Get pushed back down your throat
And leave you choking
When the Spell is broken
WHEN THE SPELL IS BROKEN- Richard Thompson
When the spell is broken, when the spell is broken
How you ever gonna keep her now
You can't cry if you don't know how
When the spell is broken, when the spell is broken
All the joy it is gone from her face
Welcome back to the human race
How long can the flame of love remain
When you curse and fight and never see like
Or hear a like spoken
When the spell is broken
(can't cry if you don't know how, can't cry if you don't know how)
When the spell is broken (can't cry if you don't know how)
Oh when the spell is broken
All your magic and your ways and schemes
All your lies come and tear at your dreams
When the spell is broken (can't cry if you don't know how)
When the spell is broken
Are you handing her that same old line
It's just straws in the wind this time
When love has died, there's none left starry eyed
No kiss and no tears
No farewell souveniers, not even a token
When the spell is broken

Don't swear your heart from the very start
Love letters you wrote
Get pushed back down your throat
And leave you choking
When the spell is broken (when the spell when the spell when the spell)
When the spell is broken
When the spell is broken, when the spell is broken
When the spell is broken
Can't cry if you don't know how, can't cry if you don't know how
Can't cry if you don't know how, can't cry if you don't know how
